I haven't called the couch surfing girl in over two weeks but the last time I did it was pretty good. We're pretty bad logistically because she is about an hour and a half away (it is a train ride so it is extremely convenient) and she works during the evening and I work during the day. I reason I didn't call is because she was on a trip for a portion and the other portion I was extremely sick again. Should I call her now?

If you like her of course! the worst that can happen is she's not interested for one reason or the other..then, you can quit the wondering and find somebody else maybe closer to you.

Don't bother.

Exactly!

OP; Try...

"Hey, how was your trip? I've been wanting to call but I've been under the weather."

I think that would work.

She eventually ended up calling me on saturday night but I was talking to my mother so I emailed her saying I would call her tomorrow. On monday when I called I thought she said she was in the bath and that she just woke up (she is Colombian). She had to end the call early because her mother called and she said to call again tomorrow. I gave an email wrapping up what we were talking about and joked about thinking she said she was in the bath which she thought was funny.

The call on monday was the longest we've ever had and at the end I joked again about mishearing that she said she was in the bath and then said "Ya I was like, that's pretty sexy, I'm talking to her while she is in the bath" and she immediately kind of shut down and changed the tone and seemed to look to end the call but I got us talking again. During the call she continually mentioned that she had some wine and it definitely wasn't a platonic call.

This morning she sent an email sounding like a business arrangement "as I told you I am sending you the confirmation email about...".

We've been going back and forth for months, flirt a lot and she pursues me (also would get jealous of cashiers / waiters flirting with me etc). I like talking to her etc but I never pursued her as a friend so if she's making it clear we're just friends I don't know how I could continue. Also I don't get the impression that she'd want to talk to me etc if I was just pursuing her as a friend.

Did I screw up or am I clearly friend zoned?

I think she is kind of half and half. Why would she be calling me then if she was just being flirty / nice?
